Family

U probably received this before, then again, it's always good to act as a reminder for most of us..somehow this brought tears to my eyes..

when i was doing this, i realised, the last family photo we had was during my brother's wedding and that was 3 yrs ago...i mean look at how fat i was u can tell how long ago that is..

back then, papa was still considered healthy, he can at de very least walk, go drinking..bla bla though he gets irritating at times but i'm sure he was so much happier back then..

looking at him now...somehow it pains me....

meaningful song...

came across this song the other day and fell in love with the lyrics, super meaningful lyrics.
Something for u guyz to think about, especially for the singles...=)

rather remain single & wait for the right one than end up with a wrong person....
with patience, the right one will appear sooner or later...jiayou~!!!



你问在我心中
是否还苦恼
那次受伤
否决了爱的好

谢谢你的关照
我一切都好
一个人不算困扰
爱虽然很美妙
却不能为了寂寞
又陷了泥沼

爱要耐心等待
仔细寻找
感觉很重要
宁可空白了手
等候一次
真心的拥抱

我相信在这个世界上
一定会遇到
对的人出现在眼角
那次流过的泪
让我学习到
如何祝福如何转身不要
在眼泪体会到
与自己拥抱

爱不是一种需要是一种对照
爱虽然很美妙
却不能为了寂寞
又陷了泥沼

我相信在这个世界上
一定会遇到
对的人出现
能愿意为了一份爱付出去多少
然后得到多少并不计较

当我想清楚的时候
我就算已经准备好
放手去爱
海阔天高
等候一次

Quarter Life Crisis

We faced this when we just graduate, not knowing what to do, what kind of jobs to try....

but at that time back in 2003, we do not have much choice. it was the down time after SARS and the employment market was so terrible!

through some han-tuming here and there..


I finally carved my path along the Marketing journey...
starting off as a recruitment consultant for 8 mths juz cos i needed a job.

Went on to 3 Beauties as a Market Research & Promotions Exec, got promoted while i was there venturing into biz development as well.




Yea that was a pic of de FAT me pinning some duno what award in 1 of the Beauty Pageants in KL - & yea you're right it's for some Ms Saree or sth..can't really rembr..=p


Moved on to AsiaPac as a Product marketing sepcialist, got promoted there covering product development as well.




Attended the sourcing fair in Guangzhou


HK & even Taiwan



Attended SMC Regional Conference @ Phuket


Gosh, looking back then i feel so god damn proud la, both jobs i got promoted and change of responsiblities. *PROUDS** & it involves flying a little here and there..


and then i decided to try sth different, i joined Canon as a a/cs specialist, doing mainly sales...



SHould i pursue my degree? I should be able to completea decent degree in a yr to 1.5yrs time.
Then again after working out the sums, it seems like it's not worth investing this kind of amount when it doesn't add value to your salary. (not much i think)
on top of that, some dilemmas am facing
1) Go for hair extension again
2) Nua @ Nishigo for a while
3) Find a job and move on
4) Sell Lil apple if i no longer have to top up cash
5) Get an iphone
6) pursue degree...



after a yr there, i realise, nothing much learnt, no advancement bla bla bla and sales is not my cup of tea..& so..HERE i am at a cross junction, facing quarter life crisis, not knowing where to venture from here.

Jack Neo admits affair

Latest news on the headlines, then again, What's new?

what's the big hoo-haa about this after Tiger Woods, seriously. is everyone leaving in self-denial or what?
it's like almost every other man has and affair outside lah, why kick the fuss just cos this particular one is a celebrity?

people, open your eyes and take a look at the married men around you, there's a good 50% of them having an affair outside. and by saying 50% i think i'm being kind enough to the other species.

Jack Neo admits affair

* He confesses to 2-year affair with 22-year-old model.
* Wife knows about it but chooses to 'close one eye'

JACK Neo, Singapore's most successful film-maker, has confessed to a two-year affair with a freelance model less than half his age after the young woman exposed it by showing up at his Pasir Ris semi-detached home.

Chinese evening daily Lianhe Wanbao said Miss Wendy Chong, 22, was upset that Neo, 50, had apparently lied to her and demanded to see his wife on Friday. Neo met Chong when she got a bit role as a nurse in his movie, Money No Enough 2, two years ago, and has a meatier role as Mark Lee's sister-in-law in his latest film, Being Human, which opened on Thursday, said The New Paper on Sunday.

The 1.63m tall model said Neo took her on trips overseas, including Taiwan, Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia. 'I would go shopping while he work. After he finished his work, we would meet up and enjoy our time together,' she told TNP on Sunday.

Lianhe Wanbao said she had tried calling Jack several times on Friday but he did not answer her calls. She then went to Jack's home at about 3 pm and waited till he returned home. She told him she wanted to go in and talk to his wife, Madam Irene Kng, 46. To her surprise, Neo let her into the house and called his wife to come downstairs.

Chong said Madam Kng's reaction to her husband's affair shocked her. 'She asked me, 'What do you want?' She said that she did not care about who Jack involved with as she was content that she loved him.' The three of them later left for a meeting in a restaurant at Changi Airport's Crowne Plaza Hotel in a car driven by Madam Kng.

Jack admitted to Lianhe Wanbao that he was at fault, adding that he felt terrible but had been unable to end the affair as Chong had threatened to harm herself, and that he was worried that his wife could not forgive him.

In a surprising revelation, Madam Kng said she had known about the affair for a year but she chose to 'close one eye' and did not confront her husband. -- LIANHE WANBAO

A Zhai Nu Wannabe~!!

I'm not just a Nua Tang, i'm also a Zhai Nu wanabe..~!!

The weather's been terrible, and mama's been coughing for a while, so I've decided to cook this~!


Tadah! My 招牌 Apple White Fungus soupyy..


White fungus is good for lungs and with red dates, totally beneficial to the respiratory system.
So it's perfect for Mama & Papa, since he start to smoke again..

Anor bowl for Tabby since she's been coughing all de way from CNY and anor bowl for sm1 else with weak lungs...lolx


It's also extremely simple to makem here's all that you need:

1) Apples (duh obviously)

2) White Fungus (anor obvious one..)

3) Nan Xing/Bei Xing (known as Bitter Almonds)

4) Red Dates

5) Rock Sugar

If you're wondering abt the exact portions, sorry la this one same as my honeystars, i never measure portions, i use my guts feel! LOLx....

Bring water to boil, then dump in the apples, pre-soaked white fungus & nan xing bei xing.

Let them simmer for say 30-45mins, then add in your red dates and rock sugar to taste....

let it simmer for anor 15mins, and voila! Done!

oh ya, rembr to skin the apples and not use too much apples else it adds sourness to this dessert...

Officially a Professional Nua Tang

I've officially left Canon friday...instead of going out having a nice farewell and partying it away in celebration, i've been a good girl, homie on both fri & Sat....


mixed feelings?

hell yes, i was glad to finally let go of the source of the stress, doing things or facing or having to answered to people i do not enjoyed doing so.


at de same time, it felt kinda lost that everyday is gona juz be any other day....
perhaps going away will be a good for me to recollect my thoughts and get going once again.
